Jesus the light of the world. 

John  8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

The Bible severally reveals that our Lord Jesus Christ was the indisputable light of the world. 

John  1:4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.  1:5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.  1:6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.  1:7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.  1:8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.  1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

John  3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

John  9:5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

John  12:35 Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.

John  12:46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

Matthew  4:14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,  4:15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;  4:16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

For any of His disciples of all ages and you in particular not to walk in darkness, you must as a matter of compulsion follow Jesus. 

John  8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Only our Lord Jesus Christ can show light to the world. 

Acts  26:23 That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should shew light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.

This is done through His words, because His words are light. 

Psalms  119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.  

119:130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.

Proverbs  6:23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

When you walk according to His words, you will walk in the light. 

Joshua  1:8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Job  23:12 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.

Psalms  119:16 I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.

Psalms  119:60 I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.

Psalms  119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.

When you walk according to His words, you, yourself will become a light in the world. 

Matthew  5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.  5:15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.  5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

When you walk according to His words, you will not go to hell. 

Job  33:28 He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, and his life shall see the light.

You must also be speaking according to His words. 

Isaiah  8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

The call is coming to you to begin to walk according to the light of the world. 

Isaiah  2:5 O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the LORD.
